Chapter 770 Intelligence comes first, the plan is finalized
Since the disappearance of the war master, the five secret houses of Maldraxxus have been involved in internal strife.
The marquis of the Creation Secret Academy and the Ceremony Secret Academy tried to seize the position of the military master's heir, but the other three major secret colleges were firmly opposed to this. They believed that the missing military master would return one day, and now was not the time to discuss the successor.
The rules of Maldraxxus are very simple. Only the winner has the highest say.
Since there were disagreements among the five secret academies, a massive internal fight began.
According to the barrage, this long-lasting internal fighting continued until version 9.0 many years ago.
When the foot man controlled by the player tracked the Banshee King who betrayed Azeroth and came to the Shadow Realm, the Marquis of the Chamber of Blight and the Chamber of Sharp Eyes had been assassinated, and the Marquis of the Soul Chosen did not survive long before he was stabbed in the back by his men.
, the three major secret courtyards were all turned into a mess.
However, the Secret Academy of Creation and the Secret Academy of Ceremony, which were hiding behind the scenes and plotting the conspiracy, did not get their way in the end.
With the help of the powerful Footman, the factions still loyal to the war master took control of the situation, and the unrest in Maldraxxus finally subsided.
In the process, Gamal, the Marquis of Creation, was defeated and died. The Marquis of Ceremonies, the Arch Lich Sindani, who had taken advantage of the situation, suddenly changed his position and threw all the blame on the head of Baron Kel'Thuzad of the Ceremonial Secret Academy. He temporarily escaped.
One calamity.
At this point in time where Sarlayan was, there was a big discrepancy between the candidates for the barons of the five secret chambers and the information provided by the barrage, but the marquises were still the same five elders.
In fact, it's quite normal when you think about it. It's not that easy to find a demigod-level boss. Even Maldraxxus, who has a lot of martial virtue, doesn't change his marquis very often.
According to what the barrage said, before setting off to the Maw to investigate the truth, the leader deliberately left a stone tablet in the middle of the magma in the Soul Selection Academy.
On the surface, this stone tablet is used to test the willpower and endurance of the members of the Soul Selection Academy, but in fact, the war master hid an unfinished weapon in this stone tablet, with a symbol representing
Runes that characterize the five mysteries of Maldraxxus.
If this half-finished weapon can be cast, it will become a key that can open the door of the Soldier Master's Seat and discover the warning left here before the Soldier Master sets off.
The content of the warning is very simple. It is to remind those who enter the Seat of the War Lord to pass on his warning to other Eternals, unite all the countries in the Shadow Realm to march into the Abyss, defeat the warden Zoval who is already ready to move, and stop his madness.
plan of.
Sarlayan's purpose is to open the War Master's Seat and obtain this warning. He can take the opportunity to add some information to it to more clearly indicate the reason for the War Master's disappearance and his current whereabouts.
As evidenced by the message from the war master, Gristia and the Winter Queen, who were already suspicious of Denathrius, would definitely take action as soon as possible to avoid Revendreth's surveillance and send people to secretly sneak into the Maw to rescue the trapped people.
The soldier master deep in the Tower of Sinful Souls.
...Salayan only hopes that this candidate will not be him. With his current strength, rashly going to the warden's lair is simply asking for death.
But that's all a story for another day. Sarlayan believes that the Winter Queen will properly arrange the candidates and will not let him, a rookie who has not transcended the boundaries of mortals, carry out such a difficult task.
……I guess so.
…
After carefully reading the information about Maldraxxus, and after many discussions with Danmaku, Sarlayan roughly worked out a set of planning procedures.
Among the five secret chambers of Maldraxxus, the only one who is determined to cause trouble is the King of Hatred in the Secret Chamber of Creation, Marquis Gamal.
Marquis Sindani of the Ritual Secret Courtyard is very good at adjusting to the wind. Whichever side is stronger, this unscrupulous great lich will fall to that side without hesitation.
The Academy of Creation is mainly responsible for creating war weapons for Maldraxxus. The Academy is filled with a large number of abominations and various structures.
In addition, the floating city of the undead that has not yet appeared in Azeroth was also built by the Academy of Creation. A typical example is the floating city of Naxxramas that the Scourge will acquire in the future.
According to the barrage, neither the first-generation Lich King Ner'zhul nor the second-generation Lich King Arthas succumbed to the Warden. So how did the Undead Floating City, a Maldraxxan specialty, flow into Azeroth?
?
The answer is simple... Kel'Thuzad.
Kel'Thuzad is a typical Dalaran mage. In order to reach the other end of the Gate of Truth, his moral bottom line is very flexible, and everything is just to achieve his "great" ideal.
In the original history, when Kel'Thuzad discovered that the so-called Lich King was just a dabbler and could not provide much help in his pursuit of the truth, he did not hesitate to grab the olive branch offered by the warden.
After Kel'Thuzad was defeated in Naxxramas, the Warden sent someone to bypass the Arbiter and secretly lead Kel'Thuzad to the Shadow Realm, and directly arranged for him to be sent to Maldraxxus to join the Ritual Chamber secretly.
Fan the fire.
Marquis Sindani's move to dump the blame after everything was settled was indeed a bit priceless, but her reasons were not completely untenable.
Kel'Thuzad, who has taken all the blame in this world, is indeed the culprit who directly participated in the subversion conspiracy of the Ritual Chamber. There is nothing wrong with putting this blame on its head.
Anyway, in the end, the footman's side was not able to catch the definite evidence that Marquis Sindani participated in the rebellion.
To put it simply, Sharlayan has a preset position and identity for his trip to Maldraxxus. The Sharp-Eyed Chamber, the Chamber of Decay and the Chamber of Soulselection are all forces that can be won over.
Although the Secret Court of Ceremonies huddled behind the Secret Court of Creation and quietly encouraged them, at least the group of lichs did not dare to blatantly stand up and take a public stand.
The only one who is really fighting to the death with Sarlayan's team is the Secret Academy of Creation who is being used as a gun without realizing it.
There is no doubt that the shadows of Denathius and the Warden are behind the Academy of Creation and the Academy of Ceremony. What Sharlayan needs to do is to expose their true colors and let the Wither and Sharp Eyes Academy, who have been unwilling to participate in the internal fight head-on,
Join the encirclement and suppression.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Yes, according to the information provided by the Winter Queen, the Sharp Eyes Academy and the Zero Secret Academy did not fully engage in internal fighting.
The one who single-handedly blocked the two great mysteries of Ritual and Creation was the Soulselected Mystery, the strongest overall force in Maldraxxus.
The Wither Chamber is composed of mad chemists who research plague potions. Unless conclusive evidence is placed in front of them, the Wither Chamber, which is mainly responsible for logistics, will not directly participate in the battle.
The sharp-eyed secret agency in charge of intelligence only believes in the truth.
According to intelligence records, since the disappearance of the war master, the main scouts of the Sharp-Eyed Secret Academy have been searching for the whereabouts of the war master in various places in the Shadow Realm. The troops left in Maldraxxus are relatively small and unable to influence the overall situation.
Sarlayan did not intend to let the sharp-eyed assassin play any role on the frontal battlefield.
Assassins have assassin usage. Instead of letting them waste value on a meat grinder-like battlefield, it is better to put them in the most suitable place.
Valeera and others had long been accustomed to Sharlayan's emphasis on intelligence, and were not surprised at his proposal to make the Academy of the Sharp Eye the first stop on his trip to Maldraxxus.
The five major kingdoms of the Shadow Realm are not directly connected to each other and need to be transited through the eternal city of Oribos, which is located in the center of the Shadow Realm.
With the Queen of Winter personally seeing her off, Sarlayan and his party of four embarked on a journey to Oribos, with Lady Moonberry as their guide.
After working together to quell the unrest in Ardenweald, Sharlayan and Moonberry have become very familiar with each other.
Moonberry, who is lively and active by nature, is very curious about her three new friends, Valeera, Stellagosa and Onyxia, and leads the way to Oribos, lying on the back of Sarlayan who has turned into a golden dragon.
Ask questions here and there.
This quirky little guy made the three of them unconsciously think of Tina Gosa who also liked to play tricks and act coquettishly.
The Shadow Realm is not a good place to travel. Even Sharlayan needs to be careful when operating in the Shadow Realm. Bringing Tina here who is not strong enough can only be used as a dragnet. It is better to let her stay in Quel'Thalas.
Help with housekeeping.
The three girls had long been accustomed to getting along with Tina, and they were no strangers to the same type of moonberry. Under the initiative of the familiar little goblin, the four of them soon started chatting.
The question raised by Valeera made Sharlayan dumbfounded. As expected, the jealous boy first asked Moonberry whether Sharlayan was flirting with women in the Shadow Realm.
Accompanied by laughter and laughter, Sarlayan entered the space passage leading to Oribos.
The strange statues in the passage caused the four people behind Sarlayan to temporarily stop talking. The three women, who were visiting the Shadow Realm for the first time, observed the magnificent scenery around them in amazement.
Stellagosa touched her chin with interest: "Is this the space channel connecting different countries? It's a bit like the wormhole that Sarlayan mentioned before."
Not long after, Sarlayan, flying at full speed, rushed out from the other end of the passage, and what appeared before their eyes was a giant city floating in the sky.
"We're here~"
As a native of the Shadow Realm, Yueberry proudly pointed to the magnificent aerial city in the distance that looked like a wonder and said: "This is the center of the Shadow Realm, the eternal city of Oribos."
